“Are you here to save me?” I asked bitterly, thinking of the look in my father’s eyes as he tried to wring the life out of me. “Or are you just here to bring me gifts and false hope?”
The stranger didn’t answer, but I could feel his presence as he approached. Still, I didn’t turn to face him, even when I felt a warm, gentle hand squeeze my shoulder.
Abused. Neglected. Caged. 
That’s how Princess Ember, the daughter of the Alpha King of Allusia, has spent her young life. Sold like chattel to another Alpha in exchange for the promise of warriors for her father against an uprising, Ember’s life feels like it might be over. 
But a stranger comes to her in the night, her only refuge from the daily attacks from her father.  Will he be her savior? Or will she just find herself in another gilded cage?

An Alpha for the Stolen Princess

Before I realized it, two weeks had passed since Alec had left me in Moon Haven. Every minute since he rejected me had felt like a knife in my chest. My whole body ached. It was almost impossible to get out of bed some days, but I forced myself to get up because lying there, thinking of him, crying, and wishing that things were different would do nothing. I got out of bed and headed to the main hall, where Chastine made us gather every day. The beauty of the Palace of the Moon still left me breathless sometimes. There was a peacefulness and tranquility to Moon Haven I had never experienced. 


There was nothing to really distract me from the ache in my chest and the way Alec’s rejection seemed to rattle in my ears.
